[PATCHv2 net-next 1/7] net: usb: centralize usbnet_cdc_zte_rx_fixup in usbnet

[Oliver Neukum]

This helper is used by multiple drivers using usbnet.
It is better to be provided by usbnet than one of them.

[PATCHv2 net-next 2/7] net: usb: usbnet: add cdc_state to struct usbnet

[Oliver Neukum]

This allows centralisation of code using cdc_state in usbnet, reducing
code duplication. No functional change intended.

review.

If the comments are to be improved, that should be in a separate
patch.
